Hi guys, ok i just had a few questions i was wondering about... First off, i see on ebay and websites that specialize in swaps, that they have say the JDM 2nd gen 3stge at 225hp. I was wondering if there is any way to identify it as the actual jdm version instead of the usdm 200 hp 3sgte so i dont get played like a flute. Also, is the JDM tranny that comes on some swaps with the jdm engine, is that an lsd tranny? and if not, where could you get one cheap? thanks

ok the LSD doesnt really have much to do with the tranny as most people think

on GT-Fours (5th and 6th gen) only the rear differential is Limited Slip the front is not

the WRC models have LSD front and back.

so if you got a JDM clip (5th gen) it wouldnt matter cuz you wouldnt be able to use the rear anyway.

the best way to tell if its JDM or not is have them take a pic of the side of the turbo

the USDM 5th gens use the CT26 and the JDM's use CT20B
